The Musical Heritage of a Golden Age
MIGRATION AND DIVERSITY
IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY SLOVENE LANDS
DESIGNED AND WRITTEN BY
Maruša Zupančič
This exhibition tells the story of the forgotten European musicians who moved to our cities, shaped the development of Slovenia’s musical culture, and had a decisive influence on music composition, production, education, and publishing all the way up to the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Taking into account various geographical and demographic aspects with clear visualizations, it offers a new perspective on European musical migration and the development of concert repertoire during a golden age of common European musical history.
